A Momentous Time
I find myself in a momentous time. The next three years of my life are going to be decided on what I do in these next few months and those next three years deciding what I will be doing for the rest of my life.
I long for more admirable qualities and heaps of moral fibre. I long for the assurance that I’m going to blossom into the success my parents believe I will be. I long for the focus...
“It’s alright. No one’s got it all.”
– Track 11.
Robyn & Tyler’s Infinite Playlist Vol 4.
“Mate do you think you could sit on a tree stump for me?”
– Laura
“Where do you want to go in town? I need to go to Marks & Spencer’s...”
– Simon.
Eating Disorder
Over the past few weeks I have been feeling nauseous when faced with most meals. Sometimes I can finish my plate but a good 75% of the time I have to stop after a pathetic and unhealthy amount of food and engage in an intense mental struggle to stop myself from actually bringing said food back up. Sometimes I lose. It’s tiring, gross, and is resulting in me not even bothering to have meals...
Me. Missy Elliot. Kitchen. Cooking. Noodles....
The Sales
“Sometimes when you start talking to really hideous looking people, they’re...”
– My uncle Peter, over Christmas dinner. Priceless.

“You can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. But that’s...”
– Nathan/Charles Darwin
Banging my head against a brick wall.
“Love is never lost. If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften and purify...”
– Like fuck Washington Irving.
“I love your daughter. I’m in love with her. And one day she’s going...”
– Ohhhh Julian you babe!
One Tree Hill. One big emotional rollercoaster.
Southampton
There’s nothing more comforting than a cuppa with the bestie, a curry, a roaring fire, and family. I’ve been back two hours and returning to my hometown has made me as contented as I hoped it would!
“I’m not really into reality at all.”
– Dee Plume
Milk
“Your personal statement needs to make you stand out from the others, the average...”
– I don’t stand out. I am Joe.
“Are you happy, you know, in life?”
“That’s a big...”
– Happy-Go-Lucky
This film made me realise how lucky I am and how much I have going for me. But also, I’m surrounded by promising people with a lot going for them as well.
In my opinion, the album tracks on Avril Lavigne’s debut record were extremely underrated.
I've got zine knowledge coming out my arse.
I'm going to learn to play the harp.
“Woah right, okay, what is it about a group of people ordering an indian or a...”
– Sing it Smithy.
This is Playradioplay! - Madi Don’t Leave
...
“I kissed your lips so tight, and in that moment they were mine.”
Fuck Sake
